Visted Bay View State Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Bay View State Park?

We rented cabin 3 for 2 nights. Are the cabins heated and have electricity? Also, I have seen on some reviews that you have to pay to take a shower? Is this true? Is there water close to the cabins for drinking and cooking?
